Sound Off: They should help us out with Sandy

This is in response to Hurricane Sandy and all the devastation. I want to see if we're going to get help from our allies. We always seem to help them when they're in trouble. How about Great Britain, France, and Israel, how about them helping us out?

Stop attack ads

I wish the politicians would stop all these attack ads on each other and just say what they're going to do for the voters.

Tell it right

This message is for John Gray about his hitchhiker column on Oct. 31. If he's going to tell a story, I know it changes through the years, he didn't tell it right.

Put them where they belong

8:30 a.m. Wednesday, driving on Pawling Avenue. Two Troy police cars, three blocks apart, stopping people going five miles over the speed limit. In the meantime, shootings and violence down on Ida Street and North Central. Mr. Rosamilia, get in control of this city. Put the police where they belong.

A joke

Troy Police are a joke. I called at 11:30 p.m. recently. Called back at 12:03 a.m. and was told they were too busy. Finally came at 12:55 a.m., I can't wait to read the court notes for that day.

It was better

What happened to transportation in Lansingburgh schools? Where did the guy go that used to do it? Things were so much better.

Here's why

Who is responsible for our Troy city budget? We spend $200,000 for a failed shot spotter. Provide the mayor with a city owned vehicle and send five firemen with a fire truck with a city ambulance to transport one patient to the hospital.

Voting Republican

I would just like to say that I am a member of the Troy teachers association and no matter what my partners say, I am voting Republican.
